About us

Expert Mandarin tutors for expat families

Helping expat children master Mandarin with native-speaking, qualified tutors across Asia and the UAE.

Our story

Mandarin Tutors exists to solve a specific problem: expat children at international schools who need Mandarin support from qualified native speakers, not generalist language teachers. Finding a tutor who is fluent, teaches children well, and knows the IGCSE or IB syllabus is genuinely difficult — so we make the matching simple.

We look for native or near-native Mandarin speakers with real teaching experience and knowledge of the curriculum your child is following. We support learners from complete beginners through to HSK 6 and IB Higher Level Chinese, and we understand what it's like for a child to learn a language in a second-language environment.
